Hi,
I'm a Newbie to Linux - I'm trying to install Ubuntu 20.04 on a Gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4 with 8Gb ram. The install disk I am using has worked on another system, and I can install xUbuntu on this system, but when I try to load a full Ubuntu, the install process stops with the install bar showing 'Running update-grub'. The cursor still moves.
If I try to push a few buttons, I can drop into a command-line window, which has the following last message:
"XDG_Runtime_DIR not owned by us (uid0) but by UID 999 - this could happen if you try to connect to a non-root Pulse Audio as a Root user over native protocol. Don't do that."
Further failures below occur - "Task ZPool 27382 blocked for more than 996 seconds" and "Bad RIP value" lead onto dump messages from Ubuntu kernel. And then all I can do is power down.
Has anyone got an idea what I can do next?
Thanks....
